# Meteora > Building the most dynamic liquidity protocols in DeFi. Helps users trade and earn rewards on Solana by making it easier to provide liquidity to trading pools and automatically finding the best yields. Meteora is a protocol that helps both traders and liquidity providers get better results on Solana. Traders can swap tokens with lower costs because the protocol automatically adjusts fees based on how busy the market is. Liquidity providers can earn from both trading fees and lending, with options to focus on specific price ranges. The protocol includes tools for managing multiple types of tokens in one pool, automated investing strategies through vaults, and secure token launch features. - Type: Company - Sector: Finance - Status: Active - Founded: 2021-04-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/Meteora ## Products - [Meteora Dynamic AMM Pools](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Meteora): An automated market maker that combines traditional liquidity provision with integrated lending yield generation. The protocol dynamically allocates capital between market making and lending protocols based on volume patterns and lending rates. Features include automated yield optimization, dynamic fee adjustments, and integrated lending positions, enabling liquidity providers to earn both trading fees and lending yields simultaneously. (Pool Software, Live, Main Product) - [Meteora Dynamic Vaults](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Meteora): A protocol for dynamic yield optimization that automatically distributes capital across multiple DeFi strategies including lending, liquidity provision, and yield farming. The vaults actively monitor real-time APY across integrated protocols, automatically rebalancing to maximize returns. Features include smart contract-based strategy execution, automated yield compounding, dynamic rebalancing based on market conditions, and efficient risk management through strategy diversification. (Yield Aggregator, Live) - [Meteora Multi-token Stable Pools](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Meteora): Advanced liquidity pools supporting up to five correlated assets using specialized pricing curves optimized for minimal slippage. The protocol implements custom invariant curves designed for tight price ranges between similar assets, enabling efficient large-scale trades. Features include dynamic fee adjustment based on pool imbalance, automated price range optimization, and capital-efficient stable asset swaps. (Pool Software, Live) - [Meteora Dynamic LST Pools](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Meteora): Specialized liquidity pools designed for liquid staking tokens, featuring customized price curves that account for the LST-base asset relationship. The protocol optimizes liquidity distribution based on staking rewards and unbonding periods, with dedicated fee tiers calibrated for LST trading patterns. Includes automatic reward handling and minimized impermanent loss through LST-specific pricing algorithms. (Pool Software, Live) - [M3M3](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Meteora): A specialized memecoin launch platform that transforms memecoin dynamics from 'dump races' to 'stake races'. Enables token creation with permanently locked liquidity in Dynamic AMM pools, while allowing top stakers to earn trading fees. Features include automated pool creation, configurable tokenomics, stake-to-earn mechanics for fee distribution, and customizable parameters for unstaking periods and reward distributions. (Launch Pad, Open Beta) - [Mercurial Finance](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Meteora): Mercurial Finance is a DeFi protocol on Solana that enhances stable asset liquidity through dynamic vaults. It offers low-slippage swaps, dynamic fees, and flexible liquidity allocation to optimize returns for liquidity providers. The platform supports various stablecoins, wrapped assets, and synthetic tokens, contributing to the efficiency of the Solana DeFi ecosystem. (Yield Aggregator, Inactive/Support Ended) ## Assets - [Meteora Token (MET)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Meteora): MET is the governance token of Meteora, a liquidity protocol on Solana. It is used to vote on protocol decisions and parameter updates, with holders earning fee distributions from protocol vaults. Staking MET grants voting power that determines how liquidity incentives are allocated across Meteora's pools, allowing the community to shape which markets receive rewards. (Governance) - [Mercurial (MER)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Meteora): MER was the utility token of Mercurial Finance, a stablecoin exchange on Solana that rebranded to Meteora and replaced MER with a new token. It was used for governance, earning trading fees, and as collateral for synthetic stablecoins. The token was issued in a sale hosted by FTX, and following the exchange's collapse, the project abandoned MER to distance itself from the fallen empire.
